    That does not make sense if the people replacing you in the seat are willing to pay the full fees that you pay for those seats.

    This is going to depend on whether or not all of the basketball season tickets sell out. If they don't, your plan might work. If there is a sellout like football, any seats not renewed will go to the person with the highest priority points.

    I am pretty sure you have to be a parent or sibling or real close relative to transfer season tickets. It was that way to stop people from say holding a auction for sold out football seats and allowing people to jump the line. I don't know if that is the case with basketball as it is not sold out.

    Jumping the line is essentially what you are doing in this case if you are just having them get them for a year so you get better seats than other donors then transferring to your name next year so you get the seats.

    Look at this from the perspective of the account holders (priority points) you jumped in front of that would be willing to pay the full fees for those seats. Then it make plenty of sense.

    Yeah I doubt they will let that happen. For my BB seats I got involved with a group who all wanted to sit together. There were three people who had points. I had the most but they used the person who had the least points because we all wanted to keep our tickets in individual accounts.

    When I asked Josh if I were to buy the tickets and use my account-points could I later transfer the tickets if I or they decided to leave the group and he said no.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    That to me makes absolutely ZERO sense, especially if you are the one either paying them THEIR money, or you are providing some to PAY them THEIR money, they are just ....

    You're not quite getting what PL is doing, his group is separate ticket holders that want to sit together with the reseating. They all could have had separate times to pick but by going this group route they have to pick with the lowest members PP# otherwise everyone would have been trying to join in Roads group...
    Hope that makes sense.

    You have to be an immediate relative.
